a walk down market street, san francisco
Figure 1 is advertising an American classic, the submarine sandwich. This giant sign fills the lower third of the small store’s window. It is indicative of advertising in the age before mass consumer electronics.
Figure 2, a second sandwich shop just a few doors down, shows that now even a humble sandwich-shop owner can afford to be their own advertising company and printer, thanks to the computer revolution.
That pork sandwich looks f-ing gross.

They have the technology but not the art.

I’m already hungry so the first one is really tempting…. Oddly the second looks more 2D than the first.
